Let’s make this complicatedThinking is overratedWe’re busting outOf this shitty little town

Green grass and colored lensesTear down these picket fencesBurn in our bedsWhile the city lies sleeping

Why oh why?Are we starting up and going down?My oh myJust the two of us in NothingtownOur superhero playWe’ll leave this town todayAnd I’ll row it if you steer itI’ll yell until you hear itHold on tighterWith my lighterShining through
